This is usually DH's domain (which is actually a major hobby of his and he loves to work on it).
But, I like to help with trimming/shaping shrubs, using the blower to get rid of cut grass shavings, and manually watering the lawn and plants.

I would refrain the question for us...Do you get help with the yard work?....not really. But that's ok, I like doing it.

I have to do all the work with our garden, weeding, and flowers. DH does the mowing and shoveling in winter

I hate outdoor work so much. Really surprising considering I like being outside. I do the flowers and veggies which usually die. He does the rest, which usually lives.

@mediagirl: Haha, ditto. I can only keep cactus alive, since that requires basically no maintenance.

I do planting and watering!
this past summer I planted a hydrangea tree, some azaelas, daphne shrubs, and some other plants. My DH has to water them though because I always forget!

The yard is totally my domain! 38+4 yesterday and I was out with the weed whacker and mower, then weeding and trimming! DH doesn't mind it either, but I'm on top of things.....a little too much perhaps I love my gardens and cannot wait to have a larger lot someday to have even more!

Yup, my husband does the lawn mowing, tree/shrub cutting. I do more of the gardening aspect although he loves to do that as well.

I do all the yard work. Tree trimming, lawn mowing, weed whacking, shoveling in the winter, etc.

We both love gardening and planting but we are so busy now that we haven't been taking care of our yard at all. Our lawn is so embarrassing

Not usually. If we're doing a big project then I help.

I hate yard work and I don't plan on helping a lot!

I'd like to, but unfortunately going in that heat and any sort of hard labor gives me migraines

Usually we do the yard work together since neither of us particularly enjoys it. When we have other things that need to be done around the house though, sometimes I'll do the inside things while he works outside.

The yard is my domain! DH won't let me use a chainsaw, so that's one thing I don't do. I am also morally opossed to shoveling -- otherwise, it's all me.

I water the dry spots in the grass after work sometimes. I have a potted basil that I baby because I can't seem to keep anything alive! We share the weed pulling, etc. but he does the rose bush and rosemary trimming. I hate the thorns and sticky branches from the rosemary.

I do all the yard work... Hubby helps if I throw a big enough tantrum about it.
